Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2000

Before he could finish, Joan had left for the garden.

“Mom, what’s wrong?” Lucius yelled aloud.

“Oh, isn’t it time for school?” Joan knelt and tousled his hair.

“It’s the weekend today. Have you forgotten?” Lucius gave Joan a quizzical look as if he sensed something was wrong.

“Oh, I forgot as I’ve been very busy recently. Come, let’s go to the garden to see Grandma.”

“What about Dad?”

Suddenly, Joan’s gaze darkened. Soon, he will no longer be your dad.

“He still has a lot of work in the office. Let’s go on without him.” Just as she spoke, Joan led Lucius away.

Left alone in the house, Larry began to regret his actions.

Was I being too impulsive just now?

He knew that Joan resented such advances. However, he still committed the mistake nonetheless.

“Grandma!” Lucius yelled loudly in the garden.

“Hey, why are you here?” Delilah sounded delighted.

“Oh, has Larry drank the soup to cure his hangover?” Delilah asked Joan.

He was drinking? Joan furrowed her eyebrows slightly.

“Last night, he downed a lot of liquor. I wanted to call you but he stopped me. In the end, he fell asleep at the table.”

At that moment, Joan’s felt a wrenching pain in his heart.

Foolish man. Does he think he can drink his problems away and not let me know? Joan’s eyes were suddenly filled with sadness.

“Mom, look, the flower is withering…”

“Larry, are you alright?” Caspian asked in concern.

“Oh? You’re going overseas?” Dustin leaned by her ear and asked softly.

Does this mean she wants to forget everything?

“That’s right. I want to take Lucius to travel,” Joan replied with an awkward expression.

She didn’t want to see Larry for the time being as she wanted to avoid being dragged into his problem with Gabriella. All she wanted right then was for him to sign the divorce agreement.

“I want to go too,” Dustin suddenly suggested.

Joan was stunned.

What are you going for? It’s not like you have any emotional problems to run away from. Furthermore, the supermarket is very busy recently. How can it function without you? Joan gave him an inquisitive look.

“What is it? Do you not want me there? Fine, forget it. I was even thinking of helping you guys carry your luggage.” Dustin made a pitiful and helpless face.

“Mr. Dustin, are you really coming together with us?” Suddenly, Lucius ran out and asked loudly.

It’s not a bad idea for him to help carry our luggage, although he isn’t as handsome as Dad. Thereafter, a mischievous smile emerged on Lucius’ face.
